DongDaeMun Market 2016 ThanksGiving Holiday Closed Dates


After unprecedented heat and drought persisting throughout the Summer of 2016, time again for Korea’s second-most adhered Holiday Season (after Lunar NEW Years). This year the Official Holidays for Korean ThanksGiving falls into three days of September 14 Wednesday, 15 Thursday and 16 Friday but it is bridged to the Weekend of 17 Saturday and 18 Sunday, so we’re looking a real Golden Holiday Weekend 😉 be it work for you, or against depending upon your sort of work and position .

Once again, as every-other year when I get the time to Post Closed Dates of larger markets on Traditional Korean Holidays (for computers and electronics : yonder onto our affiliate Korea Tech BLog) dates differ upon building-by-building in both NamDaeMun (South Gate with more varied merchandise) and DongDaeMun (more organized for textile, apparel and toys) . to confuse matters more : some floors differ on larger buildings . thus even though below I have gathered as precise-as-possible dates from various quite-dependable sources : the most surest way is see for yourself, their announcement-on-paper stuck at the entrance of each building .
